Look like is used when making a direct physical comparison between two things and/or people. Example: #1) The man coming out of the adult video store looks like my uncle. #2) The homeless bag lady looks like my ex-girlfriend. #3) This sweater looks like the one I gave you for your birthday. #4) That baby looks like a deformed pink dolphin.
Looks (like) fun can be used for enjoyable activities. Example: #1) Riding that donkey looks like fun. I want to try. #2) The swings look like fun. It's my turn.
Look alike is used when two things are physically similar. Example: #1) My brother and I look alike. #2) That woman and her dog look alike. #3) Tangerines and mandarin oranges look alike.
